2. Welcome back to Arbor Watch. It is the Cookes’
turn in the rotation as you can see. Is it Cooke’s or
Cookes’ if I’m talking about the family as a whole. I
don’t know, who cares on with the show!
3. After the morning cuddle, Julien’s sent to the daily grind
of baking enough food for the store while Sandy
lounges around. She’s looks so bored. You know you do
have kids to take care of. I guess they’re at school right
now since it’s after 9. But you could still help Julien.
Lazy sims.
4. Puppy birthday time. Briar Rose is one with the goatee and
Thumper is the clean shaven one. Poor Briar Rose, it’s a very
nice goatee at least.
5. Sandy finally gets up and decides to help, thankfully getting
dressed before hand. She’s taking forever to get to cooking
level 10 even though she’s baking a good forth of the
goods.
6. Soon the kids are home from school. And since it’s
been so long since I’ve updated the front boy is Jay and
the background boy is Thomas. Thomas is jealous
because today is Jay’s birthday and poor Thomas will be
the only kid in the house for awhile.
7. Jay rolled romance and wants to have 20 lovers, I
should make him have children with all of them just for
being annoying. Maybe not.. That’s a bigger population
boom than I want to have all at once.
8. Fierce is still kicking around. Living the good life. He ended
up looking so cool and feature wise the most like Cleo.
Though all of Bane’s kiddos had Cleo head shape.
9. I love this shot, don’t really have a caption for it. But I
love Amanda’s expression, my what big eyes you have!
10. Day Two begins with babies!!!! Yep as some of you
have guess Sandy did indeed get pregnant in the car
last chapter. Because I want if I can get her kids to
look like her a little more. They all look like Julien.
11. Julien and Julian are both up early making things
for More Than Food. I think I’ve said before, but
Julian will be taking over the family business after
Julien goes to the great neighborhood in the sky.
12. The boys head off to work. The Cookes finally have
enough funds to get the diner part up and running. I went
ahead and hired another person so there would be two
waiters. Foolishly I forgot to take pictures of the entire
layout. I’m now counting one spot of culinary unlocked.
13. After the boys closed up shop at More Than
Food, Julien wants to go to Sue’s kitchen.
He hasn’t been in a cooking contest in
awhile. Hopefully he’ll win this time.
14. Sammie and Komei are both here too. I didn’t think they
had memberships….can you get cooking enthusiasm from
drinking Simfast? Komei of course does most of the
cooking at the Vegas.
Needless to say the chef won of course. Baked Alaska is
addictive.
15. *whispers* Back home
it’s naptime for
everyone….actually that
seems like a good idea at
the moment.
16. I love the Cookes somehow they all managed to
sit down for dinner together. Well most of them,
Julian must still be sleeping.
18. Julian is starting to spend more and more time in the
kitchen, though he’s not having much luck in the pop
tart sense. I never mad pop tarts in the oven before I
usually just eat them cold.
19. No sneaky ninja birthdays this time. Fierce
ages up to elder hood. *sniffles* Simdogs
shouldn’t grow old.
20. The kitchen is the place to be if you’re at
the Cookes. Though is doesn’t seem to
wise to be playing with the dogs while
Julien is trying to bake stuff for the shop.
21. Six rolls around and it’s time for Julien’s birthday!
Don’t catch the house on fire there Julien.
22. Aw him and Sandy don’t have matching pjs
anymore. It’s kinda sad seeing him grow
old. But it happens.
23. Winter is apparently dog training season
for the family. Everybody’s taking their
turn teaching one of the pups something.
24. See Sandy is a great pregnant sim despite herself. I love
this picture of her rubbing her belly.
25. Day Four and true to Arbor Watch elders he’s up
before the sun, already working away in the kitchen.
26. As soon as the sun comes up it’s time for
babies!!! Yes babies because kids are best in
threes!
27. Sandy gave birth to triplets,
Jeremiah, Maria and
Sandra. As for which baby
is which, I have no earthly
idea, they all look alike at
the moment.
29. When the kids come from school the boys trooped up to
the store.
The new waiter is having a bit of trouble getting used to
the job. Poor Armando is unwares. Despite that, the
bakery part of More than Food is doing well.
30. Back at home, Sandy hands off one of the triplets to
Amanda. She’s gonna be a mom one day so she’ll need
some parenting skills. Poor Amanda she doesn’t look
exactly thrilled, does she.
31. Outside Thomas spends more time with the girl
his older brothers brought home than the do.
Briar Rose is of course out there to chaperone.
32. Amanda gets used to the idea of having babies in the
house again. She’s now starting to pick up the triplets on
her own. There are kinda cute once you get used to them
Amanda.
33. Of course Day Five begins with everyone doing
their share to take care of crying infants. Poor
Jay is so awkward.
34. Day Five is RENO DAY!!!!! I finally finished the kitchen
and redid the master bathroom since it was pretty much
just a toilet. Six sims sharing one bathroom is just too
much.
35. The Cooke kids are horrible about keeping up
with their homework so they get to try to
catch up before going to school.
